Who Should I Start? Chris Conley or Ricky Pearsall

Saturday, June 7, 8:05 PM

Wide receiver Chris Conley announced his retirement on Saturday after 10 seasons in the National Football League. The 2015 No. 76 overall pick spent his first four seasons with the Kansas City Chiefs before suiting up for the Jacksonville Jaguars, Houston Texans, Tennessee Titans, and San Francisco 49ers. In 132 regular-season contests, he amassed 226 receptions (383 targets) for 2,998 yards and 15 touchdowns. Conley spent his final year with the 49ers, although he wasn't very productive, catching six passes for 76 yards in 15 contests.

San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said that wide receiver Ricky Pearsall (knee) will not practice on Wednesday, per Matt Barrows of The Athletic. Pearsall has not practiced or played since spraining his PCL in the Week 4 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars, and he doesn't appear to be on track to make his long-awaited return this weekend for the divisional battle against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday in Week 10. The 25-year-old former first-rounder is still rostered in 77% of Yahoo leagues, but he's running out of time to make an impact this year for his fantasy managers. And at this point, it's fair to wonder if even Brandon Aiyuk (knee) will be back with the Niners before Pearsall. In his four games played in 2025, Pearsall has 20 receptions for 327 yards and no touchdowns. If Pearsall can't return this weekend, his next chance to play will come in Week 11 for another divisional affair against the Arizona Cardinals.
